now it's Amazon from the same number 1 866 307-6748 sending a verification code for a transaction of $336.24 from an amazon pay account. If not me they want me to call them back at this number... scammers all the way... be careful out there... ps, I don't have an Amazon pay account...
Yup, just got the same from Alissa Exe for $476 purchase of Bitcoin. "If you didn’t authorize this purchase, call this number. " I did because it looked genuine, happily no one answered.
Got two emails within 5 minutes of each other. Very similar messages. When hovering over email sender link it said it was from service-paypal.com. Had to dig into the source info to see it was not from them.Of course always check your PayPal account from a source outside of the email to verify it's not legit.
Got 3 emails today from this suckers. Reported to phishing-paypal.com
Received 2 of these this morning. Reporting this to PayPal.
